RAID 6 (Striping with Double Parity)

RAID 6 (Striping with Double Parity)

Description: Similar to RAID 5 but with an additional parity block, allowing for two drive failures.
Pros: Enhanced data protection compared to RAID 5. Can withstand two simultaneous drive failures.
Cons: Higher overhead for parity, leading to slightly reduced write performance and increased complexity.
Use Case: Large systems where maximum data protection is required.
